Sarah Palin, Fox News split: What´s next
for Alaska´s most famous ex-governor?
Alaska Dispatch, by Craig Medred

| Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is out of a job at Fox News, freeing the host of "On the Record with Greta Van Susteren" to begin rehab from the long and exhaustive task of lobbing softballs. So the question is, as Van Susteren recovers, what will Mrs. Palin do? The possibilities are endless. Which of these do you think she´ll pick? •Sign on as the official cheerleader for the Palin-Davis Iron Dog snowmachine racing team? •Challenge Democrat Mark Begich for a Senate seat to which she always believed former Gov. Frank Murkowski should have appointed her?
|
Comments:
Medred is being tongue-in-cheek, of course, but I suspect Palin is perfectly happy being quietly retired in Alaska.

Palin doesn´t retire well. She´s a Type A personality. Fox didn´t do her any favors starting with the first Beck interview where the body between the two language was apparent. Condescension followed by all the Fox regulars. She thought Fox exposure would help her with a Presidential run. One problem. She was too Conservative for Fox to take seriously. Let her get back to the Tea Party Movement where she belongs. We Conservatives love her and a huge fight lies ahead.

No one ever needs to be "fired". Any company can just make things so uncomfortable for an employee or in this case cut the offered salary in a new contract by 70% from the last contract and the employee leaves for what they hope will be greener pastures.
That way everyne saves face and no one is embarrassed. Palin can say she quit and wasn´t fired. Fox is rid of her which offering her 300K down from a million certainly shows they wanted to be. Palin retires in AK? No way.

Sarah Palin is now unfettered in being able to save this nation...from the depths we will have sunk to by 2016.
Remember these four names: Dagny Taggert, John Galt, Hank Reardon and Francisco d´Anconia?
Now mull these four: Sarah Palin, Andrew Breitbart, Glenn Beck and Ted Cruz (or fill in your own favorites for the last two).
Still think this country can´t be saved/recovered? THINK AGAIN!
One of my favorite quotes from she of the servant´s heart (God, family, country) is this one:
"How sad that Washington and the media will never understand; it’s about country." --- Sarah Palin

I had never heard of Craig Medred, or, if I had heard of him, he was quickly forgotten.
A quick search expectedly revealed that he is a flaming Progressive Palin hater who, not unlike other wannabees, apparently loves using her name to his own benefit.
As to Sarah Palin, she is still standing despite "friends" and foes. She has done far more good for our country than she will ever receive credit, or even acknowledgment, for doing. And she is not finished yet, much to the distress of those who have tried fervently and falsely to portray her as a quitter.
God bless you and yours, Sarah Palin.
May He keep you safe within His providential care and guidance, and grant you success in accordance with His will.

If I remember correctly, Fox did a number on Beck as well. He doesn´t look like he misses them. Palin is the one of the people the left hates to see or hear from. I love bringing her name up to libs. They make a face and start talking about how stupid she is. Relly, she seems to be getting a lot of attention from the left. Let them have it Sarah.

I´m wondering what all of the Romney loving, Palin hating "conservatives" will do when Palin gets the nomination. Will they vote for her? Or will they sit home because of their pettiness and jealousy and allow Biden or Hillary to become our next idiot President?

Secretary of State John Kerry is worth some $200 million, give or take a yacht. So his decision to slap a 5% pay cut on himself in solidarity with government employees squeezed by sequestration won’t likely hurt him much. But he’s saving taxpayers another way, too — if unintentionally. And it’s downright troubling. How else is Kerry saving money? He’s failing to hire folks to fill key spots at his agency. Terrific. Think about it: With the North Koreans threatening nuclear strikes against America — and Kerry himself preparing to visit South Korea this week — wouldn’t it be a tad helpful

In March, the number of Americans who dropped out of the labor force increased by 663,000 which adds up to a record 90 million Americans who are no longer looking for employment. Zero Hedge reported: This was the biggest monthly increase in people dropping out of the labor force since January 2012, when the BLS did its census recast of the labor numbers. And even worse, the labor force participation rate plunged from an already abysmal 63.5% to 63.3% - the lowest since 1979!But at least it helped with the now painfully grotesque propaganda

Roman Catholic, Jesuit-affiliated Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington has refused to recognize the Knights of Columbus as an official student group because — wait for it — the Knights of Columbus is a Catholic organization. Gonzaga administrators notified the students who had sought the school’s official seal of approval last month, reports The Cardinal Newman Society’s Catholic Education Daily. “The Knights of Columbus, by their very nature, is a men’s organization in which only Catholics may participate via membership,” reads a letter written by Sue Weitz, vice president for student life. “These criteria are inconsistent with the policy

After 69 years, Newt Gingrich is wealthy, a celebrity, and the owner of a tony home in Northern Virginia. His place in the history books, as the leader of the Republican revolution, has long been established. But the former House speaker isn’t ready to fade away. “I don’t rule it out,” he said on Thursday over breakfast, when asked about a future presidential run. He spoke excitedly about his company, Gingrich Productions, and his upcoming trip to South Carolina, where he won the Republican primary last year. Gingrich’s unflagging energy isn’t surprising.

Going with his parental gut, President Obama applauded in 2011 when Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius barred girls under 17 from obtaining the morning-after pill without a prescription. He pictured 10- and 11-year-olds buying pregnancy prevention medicine as easily as bubble gum and drew a line. “As the father of two daughters, it makes sense to apply some common sense,” the President said. Now, a Brooklyn federal judge has ruled that moms and dads — including the ones in the White House — are owed no legal say over whether very young daughters can pop a hormonal contraceptive

A restaurant where President Obama took winners of his 2012 campaign’s “Dinner with Barack” contest was forced to close this week because it was cited for failing to comply with Washington, D.C.’s health and sanitation regulations. Smith Commons, located in the H Street corridor of Washington, D.C. is a popular dining destination in Washington. According to WUSA9, Smith Commons was cited for “operating without hot water and without a staff member certified in managing food safety.” When WUSA9 asked whether the problems had been remedied, the establishment declined to answer.

It would take superspin powers to portray the March jobs report as anything other than a huge step in the wrong direction. The US economy added just 88,000 jobs last month, 95,000 in the private sector as public payrolls fell by 7,000. The official unemployment rate ticked down a tenth of a point to 7.6%. 1. That is a paltry number of jobs, more or less matching assumed labor force growth per month. So the economy must add at least that many jobs just to keep the labor market at current depressed levels.

James Lohr was taken into custody early Friday, said El Paso County sheriff´s spokesman Jeff Kramer. Lohr was wanted for questioning in the killing of Colorado Corrections Director Tom Clements. It´s unclear if Lohr has been charged. Authorities believe Lohr was in contact with gang associate Evan Ebel days before the slayings of Clements and pizza delivery man Nate Leon.

Senator Marco Rubio is the man of the hour. He has deftly positioned himself as the indispensable figure in this year’s immigration debate. His participation has given the Gang of Eight approach to amnesty some insulation from grassroots conservative criticism, at least for a time. Liberals in Congress understand that his imprimatur is essential to get Republican votes for the amnesty. But Rubio’s position as a bridge between the parties on immigration means he faces conflicting demands. He wants to ride success on immigration to the 2016 presidential nomination but has also made hard commitments to conservatives

Last week, the Society of Actuaries warned about sticker shock ahead for individuals and families buying health insurance. How did the White House respond? In its usual Orwellian fashion, saying “healthcare costs are falling thanks to the reform law.” Falling is correct only if you’re standing on your head. President Obama repeatedly promised that insurance exchanges will save families up to $2,300 a year. He couldn’t possibly have believed it. From day one, it was obvious the law would push up premiums. That’s because it requires insurers to cover services

The rites of spring are: daylight savings time... cherry blossoms and daffodils… and another North Korean military crisis. Every year, come spring, the North Korean people run low on their stocks of food, fuel and fear. Their leaders manage the situation by manufacturing a crisis. They threaten war, their people forget about hardships to rally round the flag, and the world trembles. Everyone agrees to consultations, the North Koreans get assistance, and the crisis is averted….until the same time next year. The annual North Korean display of braggadocio and brinksmanship is so predictable you can practically set your iCalendar to auto-renew.

White House officials are now openly conceding that President Obama´s gun control package could die on Capitol Hill, a development analysts said would cast a pall over the president´s second-term agenda and weaken his leverage with Republicans. The president´s trek to Denver on Wednesday was his latest attempt to regain momentum on the issue of gun violence, on which Obama has so far failed to close a deal despite a substantial investment of political capital. "There doesn´t have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights," Obama said,

President Obama´s biggest gaffe yesterday when speaking of California Attorney General Kamala Harris was not in flirtatiously complimenting her as "the best-looking attorney general," but in introducing an observation from the system of beauty into a forum that was about the system of power.What´s that, you say? Irin Carmon does a great job in Salon in laying out the bounds of propriety for when it´s appropriate to talk about a woman´s looks as a general matter.

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

After the Labor Department announced that a mass exodus of 663,000 workers left the U.S. workforce last month and that job creation fell 112,000 jobs short of projections, Obama’s top economic adviser Alan B.

The budget President Barack Obama will submit on April 10 will contain a proposal that would prohibit individuals from accumulating more than $3 million in Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) and tax-preferred retirement accounts. According to a White House statement, the Obama administration believes the current rules allow some wealthy individuals "to accumulate many millions of dollars in these accounts, substantially more than is needed to fund reasonable levels of retirement saving." "The budget would limit an individual’s total balance across tax-preferred accounts to an amount sufficient to finance an annuity of not more than $205,000 per
